FAQ

It provides that a religious corporation, association, educational institution, or society is exempt from the provisions of Title VII that prohibit discrimination based on religion in the workplace.

To establish a prima facie case of disparate treatment under Title VII, a plaintiff must show “(1) he is a member of a protected class; (2) he was qualified for his position; (3) he experienced an adverse employment action; and (4) similarly situated individuals outside his protected class were treated more favorably.” ...

What remedies/damages are available in a Title VII lawsuit? Plaintiffs have a right to jury trials under Title VII, and successful plaintiffs can be awarded lost wages (both past and future), mental/emotional distress (compensatory) damages, punitive damages, and attorneys' fees.

The analysis is as follows: (1) the plaintiff must establish a prima facie case of discrimination; (2) the employer must then articulate, through admissible evidence, a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for its actions; and (3) in order to prevail, the plaintiff must prove that the employer's stated reason is a ...

To prove disparate treatment, the employee (plaintiff) must first present a “prima facie” case, meaning that he must present evidence that discrimination has occurred. This evidence can be either direct evidence or indirect (circumstantial) evidence.

Direct evidence. Direct evidence often involves a statement from a decision-maker that expresses a discriminatory motive. Direct evidence can also include express or admitted classifications, in which a recipient explicitly distributes benefits or burdens based on race, color, or national origin.

In these instances, you may be able to prove discrimination occurred against you if you can establish a verifiable pattern of various types of harassment happening on the job. These can include racist comments, sexually suggestive comments or emails directed at you, or other acts that could be deemed as harassment.

This means, in total, you have three years to bring a claim against an employer if you've been treated unfairly because of your age. While three years may seem like a long time, it is nonetheless a limited window to pursue legal recourse, and you should not delay taking action.

These time limits are: 365 days in California and 300 days in Nevada. The time limit is 180 days in the State of Hawaii, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam and Wake Island. To protect your legal rights, it is always best to contact EEOC promptly when discrimination is suspected.
